The Bloomberg Covid-19 Vaccine Tracker covers all U.S. states and territories as well as a growing number of countries internationally. Vaccination data has been gathered from government websites, official statements and Bloomberg interviews, as well as third-party sources including the World Health Organization, Johns Hopkins University and Our World In Data. In the U.S., prior to Feb. 20, 2021 when local governments and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported different totals for the same jurisdiction, Bloomberg used the higher number (unless there was a data quality concern). Starting on Feb. 20, 2021 CDC data is used exclusively for the U.S. due to methodological changes that disallow comparison with state-reported data.
Raw data will be pushed to this repository once a day until Oct. 5, 2022, after which the data will no longer update.
The file UPDATED.txt indicates the time at which the data was last acquired from our data store.
